If anyone had any doubt of what Democrats hope to achieve by drawing out the “Russia” investigation, it should be crystal clear after Jeff Sessions’ testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee. The knives are out for the Head of State, just as obviously as they are in that bloody Central Park production of JULIUS CAESAR. They couldn’t defeat him at the ballot box, so this is their consolation prize: the chance to try to take him down in whatever way they can.

Though Sessions had little to add about timelines and meetings that wasn’t already known –- he repeatedly made the point that after having been recused, he no longer is briefed –- the Democrats on the committee weren’t interested in that so much as in his private conversations with President Trump. Sessions insisted that according to DOJ policy, such conversations are considered confidential, but the Democrats on the committee were having none of it. They pushed and cajoled with all their might to get him to say those two little words, “executive privilege.” Since the President himself is not under investigation for collusion with Russia, this effort obviously wasn’t about that investigation at all, but about finding some reason, however tenuous, to go after HIM. Just think of all the fun they could have, calling in official after official to testify under oath about their private conversations with the President! Why, it could go on for, oh, at least four interminable years.

As Sessions reminded them during the hearing, some people have offices to run.

Jeff Sessions is a slow-talking Southern gentleman, and it made the blood boil to see The Inquisition attack him like a machine gun, interrupting his answers constantly. At one point, Sessions had to insist on qualifying an answer that was coming too slowly to satisfy the questioner, noting that if he didn’t qualify it, he’d later be accused of lying. We all know that is exactly what would happen.

But Sessions was there to set his own record straight, and he stated that any suggestion he participated in or was aware of any collusion with the Russians was “an appalling and detestable lie.” And though he didn’t say it (I will), the obvious motives of certain questioners on the panel were just as appalling and detestable.

How long do you think the left will be able to remain civil in the wake of today's events? I give it a couple of days. I do hope I am wrong and the left really stops some of their ugliness but somehow I just don't believe they can. The stakes are too high. They will forward their agenda anyway, any time they can and be damned the consequences. I read a very interesting and documented piece today about this Russian hacking. The gist of it was that there is significant evidence that Soros' Open Society is connected to what is generously called the"evidence." I don't remember when we have been encouraged to hate Russia like we are currently. And somehow I think that's more because Russia is not a big fan of globalization. I see most things through the prism of globalism and globalists. That's the long planned for and awaited goal of the UN and the left. That's why Trump will not be allowed to remain in office, if the left has their way. He is very problematic for that goal. I don't put anything past the left to stop him.

Valerie and Jim, it's not only the three of us who have correctly identified the liberal progressive democrats as the immediate cause of terrorism in America, there are millions just like us that want America to continue as the world's moral leader.
There is no one else.

What is also interesting, Philip, is the fact that a congressman (name?) who had to return to the Hill from the baseball field was actually asked by the shooter if the players were Democrat or Republican. The congressman didn't think anything about it at the time he had this exchange with the shooter in the parking lot. Only after the shooting did he realize why the Bernie Sanders nitwit asked the question. The shooter was clearly aiming at Republicans.

One day--and I dare say soon--these Leftist dopes will tackle the wrong person or persons and all hell will break lose. Lives will be lost, and who knows? That might well spark a even greater bloodshed. Backs to wall, patriots are sick of the bullying and pathological behavior of the Left and I don't think they're willing to turn the other cheek any more.

And what does that Hillary-loving hack Gov. Terry McCauliffe (sp?) say when interviewed at the attempted murder scene? Gun control is the way to stop such violence. THEIR INSANITY AND WILLFUL BLINDNESS ARE RELENTLESS. And they will not stop until all patriots are under their heels.

I'd like to think that the Left will do a little soul-searching in light of this tragedy which was brought on by their obvious endorsement and, therefore, encouragement, of violence against the Right. But, sadly, that won't be possible. Why? Because the Left lost its soul a long time ago.

For the last several years, wherever I go now I am armed. The Left and their Islamist allies are truly the enemy within and are quite capable of ANYTHING. Best we always be prepared.

a Republican congressman was gunned today by a Bernie Sander's supporter today June 14, 2017.

With out the Bernie Sander's terrorist being a better aim and without the Capitol Police arriving in time to kill the terrorist, there would have been more Republicans killed since Republicans were the only baseball players at the ball diamond at that time.

As much as the democrats will now deflect their own culpability in this democrat brand of terrorism, there is NO DENYING it exists.

It made my blood boil too. How these leftist idiots can reveal their despicable nature any clearer is beyond me. They have pushed boundaries further than should have EVER been permitted. Do they not remember Holder, or Lynch, or Comey when they were asked questions? They virtually NEVER answered anything. Trey Gowdy was looked to be getting pretty frustrated with Comey. These people on the left are sick. And you are correct they will never stop..NEVER! We are at war right here right now. And somehow the only real warrior is Trump.

Don[t you mean Trump in post above? That said, Huckabee's viewpoint is spot on. We have breached the breaking point. It will only require a spark to bring it all down. And why doesn't Sessions courageously appoint a special counsel/prosecutor to investigate the mountain of Hillary scandals--which are REAL-- as well as the unmasking. A good defense is a good offense, and the GOP best take off the gloves and wage TOTAL POLITICAL WAR, failing which the country goes down. That's my take.
